<A NAME="CAIEAAEI"></A><h1>About the sample applications</h1>
<A NAME="TI56"></A><p>PowerBuilder provides sample applications with source code
so you can learn and reuse the techniques used in the samples. There
are two kinds of samples:<A NAME="TI57"></A>
<ul>
<li class=fi>Samples that you
can download from the Web</li>
<li class=ds>Samples you can install from the DVD
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<A NAME="TI58"></A><h2>Samples on the Web</h2>
<A NAME="TI59"></A><p>The latest PowerBuilder sample applications and utilities
are on the Sybase CodeXchange Web site in the <A HREF="http://powerbuilder.codeXchange.sybase.com/">PowerBuilder Samples and Utilities project</A>
. There
is a link to this page on the Windows Start menu at Program Files&gt;Sybase&gt;PowerBuilder
11.5&gt;Code Samples&gt;PB 11.5 Code Samples. If you
have not logged in to MySybase, you must log in on the Sybase Universal
Login page to access CodeXchange. If you do not have a MySybase
account, you can sign up using the link on this page. MySybase is
a free service that provides a personalized portal into the Sybase
Web site.</p>
<A NAME="TI60"></A><p>These samples are contributed by Sybase employees and users
and are updated frequently. They include standalone applications
that illustrate specific features of PowerBuilder, including features
such as using Web services, creating EJB clients, and writing visual
and nonvisual extensions using the PowerBuilder Native Interface.
Most samples include a readme document that explains which features
a sample demonstrates and how to download and use it.</p>
<A NAME="TI61"></A><h2>Samples on the DVD</h2>
<A NAME="TI62"></A><p>There are several samples on the DVD that you can install
when you install PowerBuilder. Some samples illustrate new features
in recent versions of PowerBuilder. Each of these samples has a
readme file describing the sample and its use. The following samples
are always available on the DVD:</p>
<A NAME="TI63"></A><h4>Code Examples</h4>
<A NAME="TI64"></A><p>The PowerBuilder Code Examples application contains many examples
you can use to learn a range of coding techniques. The examples
are specifically designed to show you how to use different coding
techniques with both old and new PowerBuilder features. </p>
<A NAME="TI65"></A><h4>Web DataWindow</h4>
<A NAME="TI66"></A><p>To develop an application that uses Web DataWindow<ABBR title = "registered trademark" >&#174;</ABBR> technology,
you can use the generic server component that is preinstalled in <ABBR title = "e a server" >EAServer</ABBR>. You can also create your
own HTML generator server component, using the sample Web DataWindow
PBL as a model. </p>
<A NAME="TI67"></A><p>For more information about the Web DataWindow, see the <i>DataWindow Programmers
Guide</i>
. For information about developing .NET applications
and components, see the <i>Deploying Applications and Component
to .NET</i>
 book.</p>
